I ascend from the realm of death to watch your precious cities burn
From a far end time with the knowledge of the worlds
A dark crusade to purge the light of heaven’s eyes
A pantheon of fools to be cast down

To be crowned by the hammer
To be humbled by the axe

Chorus
I am the King of pain forevermore
My reign shall last until the sun fades away
As death incarnate my word shall be law
A kingdom of loss. A kingdom of scars

A world of black and white I’m the moral grey between
Striving to hold the keys of balance in my hands
A mother’s gift, curse and burden all the same
Perverse intoxication forced upon a soul

Why can’t you see and pray?
Don’t weep for your last day

Chorus

I felt my very soul be stripped from me
Did all you asked just to be cast aside
Nothing but a puppet with cut strings
I am now free and I will never kneel again

I see it so clearly now. No Vision could have prepared me for this.
Another is born to take my place. No! Never! I am.

Chorus

To rule a barren world or destroy all I see
A mirror image of the path set for me
No longer the plaything of Gods and their schemes
A new gift granted
The freedom (kingdom)
My freedom (kingdom)
Our freedom (Kingdom) from chains.
